On the subject of education and the holocaust. Do you know of any good online courses about the involvement of the Heer on the Eastern Front? Ideally beginner level. TIA

A bombed-out family make use of a rest centre. The mother seeks advice and assistance from the Welfare Adviser in the bottom right hand corner of the photograph, whilst the grandmother and the two children relax on the large sofa and drink the tea which is being poured for them by two members of rest centre staff.

In WW2, the British government mobilized to create a global, distributed logistics chain aimed solely at keeping Britain supplied with one resource.

Flagged as a critical war effort, at times it carried a shipping priority higher than munitions.

That resource was Tea. 🧡 /1

I believe this could be a solution to the backlogs in the County Court. An arbitration crossed with Gladiators: β€œClaimant, are you ready? Defendant, are you ready? 3, 2, 1…”
